That's a hospital admission form, standard to ask relgion in case people want to be ministered to. It's not a required field.

 

And it's not "the" vaccination registration form, which will be different for every hosptial, province, city, and town.

I wrote  "no  thanks"  on mine at  Hua  Hin few  years  back.????

[Karma80]

In Phuket we were told that all work permit holders would be vaccinated yesterday en mass. My company registered us and then on Saturday, the registration page magically changes to remove any date.

 

There's no number or email, but the LINE contact admin just says no date for when foreigners can get vaccinated and also "currently foreigners without a valid work permit are not yet eligible to apply at this point in time".

 

Our company secretary has checked with all the hospitals who know nothing.

???? what a waste  of  time .

First come / first serve will last a day. The chaos and confusion on that day will then mean they will set up a system of appointments.

Bang Sue station is vaccinating around 10K people a day - mainly those workers in companies, taxi drivers, etc. They are by appointment. There may be walk-ins, but those people are just filling spots of those who don't turn up for their shot on that day.

Thaivisa every one whines about not being able to get a vaccine, then when they can register don't want the vaccine or only want the specific brand of vaccine they choose.

  Some of the most hypocritical sooks on this forum its unbelievable.  

  I only want a free vaccine from a foreign government if it's exactly the vaccine I want...boo hoo dummy spit throw all my toys out of the pram....pathetic.

You may have failed to recognise that ThaiVisa is not a unified group, separate people with different arguments - there is no hypocrisy. 

 

There is most certainly a group who will find anything something negative about anything Thai, but that is a minor but vocal minority. 

 

Regarding vaccines opinions seem to fall into a few separate groups: 

1) Those who are Anti-vaccine (a rather vocal minority) 

2) Those who are pro-vaccines but anti-covid-vaccines (another vocal minority)

3) Those who don’t mind waiting for their vaccines whichever brand.

4) Those who don’t mind waiting for a specific brand of vaccine

4) Those who want any vaccine as soon as possible and are complaining that the Thai roll out is not fast enough. 

 

I think most reasonable people are in group 3 or 4 but thats not really a group with a strong voice as the voice of balance is rarely a topical point of discussion.

I will go to my local hospital on June 7.

 

I will also enquire with what brand of jab they intend to stick me with.

 

If the words 'sinovac' are uttered by anyone at the hospital I shall be walking straight back out the door.

 

My arm, my choice.

I will not put it passed them to fill up empty used Pfizer bottles with the that Sinovac malarkey or slap Pfizer labels on inferior vaccine ...

Now that is reaching new levels. Which government are you referring to?

[John Drake]

People will be so preoccupied doing multiple registrations and filing paperwork that they will not have time to worry about getting the shot itself.

[dsj]

Here's one website that I went to register successfully, but don't have appointment yet as they don't have the Vaccine yet. It's in Thai and English and you can use your passport or Thai ID card.

a Thai friend of mine recieved their first dose of sinovac - they shared the experience over a 2 week period - I will not post here what they said but it did reafirm that never ever is that stuff going into my body - period

Why? Did he start speaking some Mandarin while blaming the origin of the outbreak actually came from the USA? Just kidding. But might be nice to be able to speak some Mandarin other than going through doing it the hard way.  Anyway all vaccines have their side effects for most people as far as we know. But my USA associate and friend did say none for him for Moderna with his first shot. And it was free.

Can someone tell me which government hospital in Pattaya I should try to register with? Can it be done online (I don't use a smartphone)? How long estimated between registering and being told "not for foreigners"?

Thanks

Mine just announced that exisiting appointments made via Mor Prom will be ignored and it will just be walk in, first come/first serve.

"Mine" what? Your hospital or your Mor Prom app?

[IamNoone88]

I will register for Pfizer and Moderna and will pay. AZ possibly. You can stick sinovac where the sun don't shine.

Tried registering two weeks ago. Was told, "Cannot. Need Thai Tax I.D." I will not waste any more time trying. Will wait until private hospitals have stock and will pay for it myself.

Might be a long wait. I checked with Pattaya Memorial Hospital today, having registered there months ago. October they reckon. No mention of what jab. Just put the whole thing on the back boiler. Not worth worrying about. But, I can't even go to my home province without either a jab, or a test @ 3500 and a permit to travel out of Chonburi to Trad. So, if I can get it earlier, whatever it is, it's worth it for me.

I think if you have medical issues, overweight, or elderly it's a good idea. For me personally, I don't think I am at risk and I am not traveling around or visiting malls so I will wait until I can get a better vaccine like Pfizer or Moderna at a private hospital, rather than injecting myself with Chinese garbage.
